Oslo Central Train Station & Bus
Terminal
Oslo's main train
station, Oslo
Sentralstasjon,
often called just "Oslo S", is
the hub of the city's transport network.
Right next to it, northeast across the street,
is the Oslo Bussterminal,
Oslo's central bus terminal, with buses serving
the region, the country, and
destinations in Sweden.
Metro, City Bus & Tram
Just outside Oslo S is a Metro station,
stops for many trams and city
buses, and a small Tourist
Information Officebeneath the prominent Trafikanten
tower. Buy bus and tram tickets
from machines in the Tourist Information
Office.
Ferryboats
Comfortable, punctual ferryboats serve numerous
destinations in Oslo harbor and farther
away. The one you'll most likely take is
the one for the short voyage to Bygdøy,
across the harbor, to
see the maritime and Norwegian Folk museums.
